"I had three bookings since I wasn’t sure about my length of stay. Hotel was unable to clean my room or even provide clean towels and empty the trash. They cited a cleaning every 5/7(?) days and a cleaning fee of GBP25/35(?) should I wish for a cleaning. This was despite checking in/ out three times during my four night stay. No bath wash and shampoo when I checked in and staff said they had inventory issues as an explanation. Hotel manager was able to help for one cleaning. But otherwise service was abysmal. Otherwise hotel is newly renovated, but the service was a real letdown."

"I have stayed at The Court before and really liked it, especially because of the location – it’s very convenient and central. However, I feel the recent changes have made the experience less enjoyable.
The space is now smaller, and unfortunately, the kitchen has been removed. There used to be areas where you could cook, eat, and hang out with other guests, which made the place feel more social and flexible. Now, that is no longer available.
It’s also not allowed to eat inside the rooms, so if you don’t want to order from their kitchen, there aren’t many options left. For me, this was disappointing because one of the best parts before was the freedom to prepare your own food and enjoy it in a shared space.
Overall, the location is still great, but the new rules and reduced facilities make the stay less comfortable than it used to be."

"For a Holiday Inn in the UK, the room was quite spacious. The hotel offers free parking and is conveniently located with multiple bus routes to the city center right outside. Getting to the city center is super convenient, especially when buying a family ticket. Being situated next to the zoo, it's also very quiet at night."

"The hotel is located in an excellent location where you can reach the scenery points by walking or riding the city light tram. The city light tram will wake you up early in 6am that you have not to set an alarm clock. It is good for people not bringing alarm clock with them.
The room is clean and tidy approximately in 13 square meters. Nothing is provided in the room even a bottle pf water is absent. I tried to ask the receiption for a bottle of water and they told me to drink tap water.
Also the facilities of the hotel is good for people who wants to keep fit as there is always a single lift working. Tens of guests are queuing in the lobby when a coach bring tourists to check in. I always walk stairs for keep fit in this hotel.
The workers in this hotel are very hard working. They will knock your door at 7-8am for cleaning. Thanks to managements who will gather at the corridor coordinating workers to work before people check in at 1500 hrs. The fire alarm is also hard working and sensitive. The fire alarm knows to teach people the dangerous of fire. I had been living 4 nights in this hotel with 3 nights alerted by this fire alarm. Firemen are called by this fire alarm to the hotel for demostration.
Thank you very much."

"The location of the hotel is very convenient and the car park facilities is also near if driving as it is in the city area. The room I booked is a queen's bed with the request of high floor. Actually I checked in quite early that day at around two o clock but the reception gave me a 2nd floor assessbility room which was out of my expectation. Upon my request, they can only changed to a standard twin room on 4th floor. The water pressure of the shower is very poor and made us very unpleasant. The breakfast was just up to standard. Only the food at 1802 restaurant is good at dinner time."

"This hotel is perfect in every way. You can walk everywhere, there's a market nearby, and there are plenty of delicious restaurants nearby. The staff are incredibly friendly, and they provide delicious pastries and coffee in the lounge. Free laundry (detergent is provided) and luggage storage are available. Best of all, the rooms are comfortable, clean, and modern. The view of Edinburgh Castle is stunning. If I ever go back, I'll definitely stay here again."

"I stayed at A&O Edinburgh Hostel during my trip to Edinburgh and had a solid experience overall. The location is excellent — right in the city center, within walking distance of the Royal Mile, Edinburgh Castle, and plenty of pubs and restaurants.
The hostel itself is clean, and relaxing after a day of exploring. The staff were helpful and friendly, but it took a while to check-in.
Rooms were basic but comfortable, especially considering the affordable price. Bathrooms were shared but well-maintained.
If you’re a budget traveler looking for a central, convenient place to stay in Edinburgh without fuss, A&O is a good choice. Just be prepared for the usual hostel vibe—shared spaces and some noise.
Would definitely consider staying here again!"

"The hotel boasts an excellent location, right on Victoria Street, making it incredibly convenient to visit The Elephant House and shop for Harry Potter merchandise. We also enjoyed what we believe were the best fried noodles in Edinburgh at Mussel, the seafood restaurant located directly opposite. The room itself was larger than anticipated, and I particularly appreciated the bathroom having a bathtub – perfect for a relaxing soak after a long day of city walking!"

MmangosugarThe hotel reception was a Hong Konger, and was absolutely smashing—really friendly and welcoming. When he overheard us chatting in Cantonese, he switched to it straight away, which felt so warm and familiar after decades here in the UK. Honestly, massive kudos to him! 👍 The hotel’s in a fantastic spot, couldn’t ask for better. Our room was a tad small, and being right by the fire door meant it got quite noisy in the mornings with people slamming it open and shut, so a proper rest was a bit tough. Also, there’s no shower curtain in the bathroom, so the floor ends up sopping wet. That said, the hot water was spot on. Cheers!
酒店前台嘅男仔係個香港人，真係好正！好友善親切，聽到我哋講廣東話，佢即刻轉用廣東話同我哋傾，喺英國住咗幾十年，每次聽到廣東話真係覺得好親切，超讚！👍 酒店位置一流，冇得彈。房間略為細咗啲，我哋間房仲要喺防火門隔籬，朝早啲人好大力咁開關門，嘈到不得了，休息得唔係咁好。浴室又無浴簾，成個地板濕晒，不過熱水就真係夠熱。thanks ！

YYunduanderizi21A very traditional, elegant, ancient and solemn hotel, the overall feeling is very good!
The location is very convenient. After exiting the Waverley train station, you can reach the hotel in less than 5 minutes on foot. The entrance is very eye-catching. It's just a big uphill walk, and it will be a bit strenuous if you push a large piece of luggage. It only takes 20 minutes to walk from the hotel to the castle.
The hotel lobby is very traditional, and the characteristic bonfire hall seems to have entered Santa Claus's home. The lady at the front desk is very enthusiastic and introduced the various facilities in the room in detail. Because Scotland is still quite cold, I didn't feel it when I turned on the heating in the room to the maximum. In the morning, a traditional English breakfast on the first floor of the hotel is absolutely amazing. There is a western restaurant with candlelight dinner next to the hotel, where you can enjoy a sweet world for two! 😍😍

GGuest UserAbit small but great for the location, able to walk to tourist attractions easily.
Only concern was that my pyjamas was missing after the house cleaning, they misplaced my pants and I was unable to get it back. There was no compensation or anything done for it. The receptionist just told us sorry that they can't find it in their laundry pile.

GGuest UserGreat location for our trip to celebrate Hogmanay. You can’t get a better location for the festivities for the Princess street party. Traveling with a baby, they already had the cot in the room before we had arrived which was great. The staff were super kind and attentive at concierge and reception. Breakfast had a good selection if you a hot Scottish breakfast. Only downside was the parking which was a 5 min drive away ( we weren’t packing light!) Overall, solid experience

GGuest UserThe overall performance of the hotel is a bit over the average level. The most satisfactory point of it is the location. It is very convenient for the guests to wander about the old castle area. They can go to the sightseeing attraction and to the tourist information centre easily. There are also different kinds of restaurants. So people have wider choices to choose their meals.

FffjeaneeThe room was very spacious, and we had no problem opening our four suitcases. The location is excellent, right on a prime street. Unlike the Hilton in York, which only had electric fans, this hotel actually has air conditioning – a big plus! The only major issue was the price. We booked in May for over 3700, but now, just a few days later, the rate is only between 1600-2200. Since our booking was non-refundable, the price difference felt absolutely ridiculous, and we ended up feeling totally ripped off. I highly recommend always choosing a cancellable option when booking, so you can rebook if the price drops.

EEsraThe building was good and the view was great; it was the best part of staying this hotel. Unfortunately room service was so bad. We stayed there 4nights; first we thought maybe they just hovered the room because the room wasn’t cleaned. Next day it was same so I told it to reception and then finally next day they cleaned it.. but again it wasn’t a full cleaning (they didn’t hover or clean the dust; just tidy the room and clean bathroom) So I can say room cleaning service is a disaster. But I also want to add reception stuff were helpful and friendly. Last thing hotel needs a quick make up; especially bathrooms are very old.

GGuest UserThe time required to walk from the train station to the hotel is about 20 mins.
There are some stores near the hotel.
There are 2 floors for the hotel. We live in a room on the 1st floor. The size is decent and the equipment is sufficient. However, the window is at the height of a peoples's head. The people outside can easily look into the room and privacy is a issue.
Also, there are some problems in the bathroom. The light in the bathroom is automatic and this is a disadvantage. When I sit on the toilet, the sensor in the bathroom cannot detect my movement and will turn the light off every minute. It will be a lot better if I can switch the lights on manually. Also, the method of changing the temperature of the shower is very unhuman.
Overall, it is a fine aparthotel but there are some problems

BBishnu BasyalI stayed at Safestay Edinburgh Cowgate from Sep 10–12, 2025. The location is excellent, right in the city center, and the staff were polite and helpful. For budget-friendly accommodation, it offers good value.
However, there are a few areas where the experience could be improved:
Beds: The bunk beds were quite loose and made a lot of noise with every movement, which disturbed sleep.
Lockers: It would be much more convenient if lockers had an integrated pin-lock system. Having to buy a separate lock just for a short stay felt unnecessary.
Noise at Night: Dorms can naturally be noisy, but there was excessive disturbance from snoring. On the second night, someone knocked on the door very loudly at 3 AM. Since all guests have electronic key cards, this should not have happened, and it was unsettling.
Bathrooms: Cleanliness could be better. One of the toilets wasn’t flushing properly, and overall maintenance was lacking.
Housekeeping: Fresh sheets were only provided after 6 PM on the second day, despite check-in being from 3 PM. This timing could be improved.
Amenities: Providing simple slippers for bathroom use would be a small but thoughtful addition.
Check-in/Check-out: Check-in at 3 PM feels quite late, while check-out at 11 AM feels early. A little flexibility would enhance the stay.
Breakfast: Breakfast was fine for a short visit, but for longer stays it becomes repetitive.
Overall, the hostel is a good choice for short, affordable stays in Edinburgh, with friendly staff and a great location. With a few improvements in facilities and guest comfort, it could easily deliver an even better experience.
